Shana: I know what you mean - I hate the suspense! Once in a while a publisher will email and let you know they're sending the book, but more often than not you just have to wait and wonder! Andi: I think I will too! Dawn: I love short story collections but I admit to not always making the time for them. I've tried to change that this year. I'll have to check out the Meeks collection.

A lot of great short story collections have been coming to my attention lately, since I blogged about our book group's trouble with discussing them. Christopher Meeks (his new collection is *Months and Seasons*) wrote a great guest post with some suggestions. *One More Year* is on my wish list, too.

I love requesting titles from Shelf Awareness but it drives me crazy not knowing if I will get them or not. I'm that way with Guernica! I want to read One More Year and The Secret Scripture!

I'd heard of it before, but hadn't really looked into it. It's starting to sound really appealing. :) MizB My new book club just recommended “84 Charing Cross Road” the other night as something we could read together, as a group.
